The Plumtree Diaries

By Gordon Wallis

In 1897, a lonely railway siding between Mafeking and Bulawayo was given a name: Plumtree.

Nestled near the border of Zimbabwe and Botswana, in a remote stretch of Savannah and Mopani forest, Plumtree became more than a dot on the map; it became a legacy.

By 1902, a school rose from the red earth-a boarding school destined to shape generations of boys into men, each generation adding its own stories to the rich, rugged tapestry of its history.

But this isn't a history lesson, nor is it a tale of triumphs and accolades.

It's something far more raw and real.

In this candid, lighthearted, and often laugh-out-loud diary, an alumnus from the 1980s brings to life the absurdities, the unforgettable characters, and the moments that defined his time there.

Spend a couple of hours with this diary, and you'll experience Plumtree's legacy from the inside-full of grit, humor, and heart.

Whether you walked the halls of Plumtree or another school nestled somewhere on the African continent, these pages will bring back memories of camaraderie, mischief, and the wild spirit that bound us all.
